Tiamat, I'm going to find a girlfriend!

"Give me a shoulder massage."

"..."

"it is good."

"..."

"..."

Morgan and Artoria exchanged a glance, and quickly confirmed that their whereabouts had not been exposed.

After all, Morgan's magical skills far surpassed those of his daughter, Bavanshi.

That means——

This is something Bavanshi herself wanted to do.

"..."

"..."

It seems like I'm overthinking it.

for a long time.

Time passed, and the setting sun soon shone on the streets of Camelot.

Having completed their secret observation, Morgan and Artoria walked in the slightly yellowish golden light.

"Sister, it doesn't seem as outrageous as I imagined."

Artoria recalled everything she had seen, and sighed with emotion.

"Bawanshi seems to be much more well-behaved than we imagined."

Just as Artoria said—

Although I initially thought I was just seeing Bavanshi's excessive behavior, I eventually discovered that it wasn't like that at all.

Yes.

If we were to describe what Bavanshi did, Artoria wouldn't want to use the phrase "a daughter who intended to attack her father."

Instead...

It feels more like "a girl in love who wants to stay by the side of her crush".

"Um……"

"And speaking of which, it seems like she's always going to the places I've been and doing the things I've done, Artoria."

"..."

Sensing the regret in Morgan's words, Artoria vaguely sensed something.

"Sister, you wouldn't want to..."

"Give Bawanshi a chance, please... This is..."

"I don't know, Artoria."

Morgan looked up at the sky.

"How would I know?"

"But--"

“That’s Bavanshi after all, a child who came here because of me.”

"Shouldn't she have been responsible for these things in the first place?"

"..."

"..."

The air suddenly became incredibly quiet.

Tick.

Tick.

The rain had started falling on the ground without anyone noticing.

"It's raining……"

Artoria said this.

"Yes, it's raining."

Morgan also said.

only--

Neither Artoria nor Morgan knew this.

This will be the beginning of a series of events.

186. Tiamat's Tears Rain

"already……"

"It's been raining for a month straight."

In a room somewhere in Camelot Castle, Artoria stood by the window, looking up at the sky filled with lightning and thunder.

"Is it really not going to stop?"

thump—

thump—

There was a knock on the door.

"come in."

Artoria said this to the outside world.

Soon, the door opened.

Melyuchina appeared there.

"king."

"Just call me Artoria—"

The King of Camelot turned around.

"Have you finished doing what I told you to do?"

"Ah."

Meryuchina nodded as she walked behind Artoria.

"We have investigated the situation in Britain as thoroughly as possible over the past month."

"Artoria, just as you all thought, this rain has been covering the entire Britain for a month."

Although she had somewhat prepared herself, Artoria was still somewhat surprised when she heard Melyuchina confirm it.

However, when he turned back to face her, the King of Camelot suppressed all his emotions.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work."

"..."

Meryuchina, of course, was not fooled by such a clumsy reaction.

She bit her lip, hesitated for a long time, and finally made a decision.

"that……"

"Has something bad happened again?"

"Artoria, I..."

"I also want to help more."

"..."

Artoria's eyes narrowed slightly, showing that she was genuinely pleased with Meryuchina's words.

"I will."

"I will definitely come to you for help once I figure out what's going on."

"Meliuchina, trust me."

"..."

"Understood." After hearing this, Meiliuqina didn't say anything more.

"Then, I'll go and call Ian over."

"He wants to see you too."

"Okay, please."

A few minutes later.

Shadows mingled.

Artoria, who was in the room, saw Ian.

"You came……"

Artoria looked at the dragon in front of her with a gentle expression.

"What do you want from me?"

"if--"

Artoria slightly squeezed her proud breasts.

"If it's something like that, we might have to wait a little while."

"There are still many government affairs to handle."

"Something's not right about this rain."

Before Artoria could finish speaking, Ian interrupted her.

"Artoria, this rain is not your usual rain."

"..."

"Your observation skills are that good—but it's not surprising, after all, it's been raining for a month, so you should be able to sense what you're supposed to."

As Artoria said this, she quickly noticed that Ian's eyes looked strange.

If I had to describe it...

It's as if they've developed some kind of disagreement with what they just said.

"What's wrong? Isn't that what you meant?"

"..."

Ian didn't answer Artoria, but walked to the window and looked at the rain outside.

"Something's wrong with them."

"..."

Artoria came to Ian's side.

She had already realized what was happening:

Ian wasn't referring to the fact that it had rained for a month, but rather...

The problem lies with the rain itself.

"What's wrong?"

Already harboring some doubts, Artoria quickly pressed for more information.

"Could you be a little clearer, Ian?"
